Solo sesh off the mudpit... Beautifully warm sunny afternoon... Superlight wind to begin with- thought it maybe better further out, but no. Did a few dredging runs trying to get on the plane, being joined by a dolphin again, before coming back in for a chill on the beach underneath the shade of a not so swinging Palm Tree...
Patiently waited before noticing a few white caps forming further out at around 2:30pm, so decided to go out for another go. Once past the Shark buoys + that distance again, Boom!- wind filled in nicely for a scoot around!! Even 15kn at times I reckon, which was a nice surprise. Had to stay out further to keep in the wind zone before making the dredge back in. Ended up being a little bit of fun!!!
Caught up with some locals whilst derigging and had a good chinwag with Freddo, as he had just finished walking the pooch!
Used the Jag 125, KA 8.7, Venom 48
